Changing the Default Privilege Level for Lines

configure terminal
Step 2
line vty line

Users can override the privilege level you set using the privilege level line configuration command by
logging in to the line and enabling a different privilege level. They can lower the privilege level by using
the disable command. If users know the password to a higher privilege level, they can use that password
to enable the higher privilege level. You might specify a high level or privilege level for your console
line to restrict line usage.
To return to the default line privilege level, use the no privilege level line configuration command.
